[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Coercion is worse than simply coming out with a mandate. If you're going to go there, own it.[/quote] I don't understand this point of view. This isn't coercion.

People will still have the freedom not to get vaccinated if it's important to them.[/quote] And I will have the freedom not to do business with the unvaccinated. My stores have signs that you must be vaccinated to enter. No exceptions. I can do business with whom I wish. Being unvaccinated (ie, being stupid) is not a protected class. I have the legal right to discriminate against the unvaccinated. [/quote] Absolutely you do, as the owner. Any owner of a business should be allowed to conduct business with whom and how they want to. Let the market speak, 100% with you. [/quote] Isn't this called discrimination? If you're fat? If you're anorexic? If you're old? If you're young? If you're republican? if you're democrat? None of these are protected classes. As long as we all agree that we are good with this, then let's have at it. Free market it is...[/quote]
